Soldeed

(this image appears for illustrative purposes only and no attempt is made to supersede any copyright attributed to it)

Soldeed was the last surviving scientist and de facto leader of the planet Skonnos. He worked for the Nimon.

He negotiated an agreement with a Nimon that would give his people the ability to conquer the galaxy.
Soldeed was utterly devoted to the Nimon. He believed wholeheartedly
that it would fulfil its part of the agreement and would chastise anyone
who questioned it. The Nimon trusted only him to enter its presence;
anyone else would have been executed.

However, Soldeed was disappointed by the Nimon's refusal to
advance him any further technology when the last shipment of sacrifices
was lost. When the Fourth Doctor and Romana
appeared on the scene, he mistrusted them and tried to have them
sentenced to death in the Nimon's complex. Afterwards, the discovery
that the Nimon had been lying to him and intended to invade drove him
raving mad.

Blaming the Doctor and Romana for interfering, Soldeed tried to
kill them both and reverse everything the Doctor had done to prevent the
Nimons from coming through their black hole. He was shot dead by Seth.
